The High Tariff.

Mr.. Frank A. Richardson, the accomplish
ed and able correspondent Of the Baltimore
Sun, who is now in Europe, in letter to
that paper, written from Berlin, shows that
the high protective tariff of Germany works
exactly as the protective tariff under which
the people of the United States gr0ap. 1t
puts money taken from the pockets of the
great mass of the people into the Golfers of a
few great monopolies. 1t is done ostensibly
under the same false and disreputable pre-
text, that it is for the benefit of the working
classes The Ubiquitous high tariff in this
country, let 1t be remembered, is retained by
the influence and power of the Republican
party, aided by few Democrats, like Ran
DALI of Pennsylvania, who owe their places
in Congress to Republican favor.
The Chicago Anarchists have decided TO
appeal to the Supreme Court of the United
States, but unanimously decline to appeal for
executive clemency, taking the ground that
they have done nothing for which to ask the
pardon of society, and that society might
ask their pardon. Three Of them even OPP
pose an appeal. The Defence Association,
organized for the relief of the murderers, will
did in securing an appeal, and falling in that
will get up petitions praying for pardons or

Robert j. Walker, of Level, has raised this year
a variety of corn that has proved to be remarka.
bly, prolific. From one-eighth of an acre he has
grown two or three barrels or from 16 to "a

each stalk contains from two to six good-szed
ears, and two grains planted in each hill pro-
duce from two to six stalks. One hill, in which
two grains were planted, produced seven stalks,
which contained in all sixteen well-filled ears.
These ears, If placed end to end, would have

After the battle of Manassas in 1861, it

army of northern Virginia that it was diff

TO get rid of this Inconvenience by procuring
for each regiiaent its state colurs. In this
was unsuccessful, except as TO Nirginisn

to the army himself, and delivered them to
the troops with his own hands

Imposing on the Bridegroom.

The mode OF procedure in the vii
LACE of Galashics was as follows
Early in the da5 after the marriage
those interested in the proceedings as
sembled at the house OF the newly
welded couple, bringing with them u
''creelo or basket, which they filed
with stones. Inc young husband, on
being brought to the door, had the
creel firmly fixed to his back, and with
it IN this position had to run the Ground
of the town. or ut least the chief por-
ton Of it, followed by number Of men
to see that he did not drop his burden;
the only condition on which he was al
lowed to do SO being that his wife
should come after him and kiss him.
As relief depended altogether upon the
wife, it would sometimes happen that
the husband did not need TO run more
than few yards; but when she was
more than ordinarily bashful, or wished
to have a little sport ut the expense of
her lord and master-wa,c it may be
supposed would not unfrequently be
the case-he had to carry his load a
considerable distance. This custom
was very strictly enforced, and the
person who was last creeled had charge
of the ceremony, and he was naturally
anxious that no one should escape.
The practice, as far as Galashiels was
concerned, came to an end about one
hundred years ago, with the person of
one Robert Young. who, on the osten-
sible plea of ''sore back, lay abed
all the day after his marriage. and OBJ
In f.,lt- ,..ft fn md INn
crcelcd. He had, it may be added in
eXtcnuat;on, been twice married be-
fore, and had on each occasion gone
through the ceremony of being creeled,
and now, no doubt, felt that he had
quite enough Of erecting. III dte Year

Parks, and Park Sites.

The designer of parks is wise if he
turns to the best account the natural
features of the area with which he
has to deal. Some parks are beauti-
full in themselves. Take Central Park
for example. One can turn from the
busy and noisy streets, and find HIM
self in rural solitude from which all
that reminds him of city life is shut
out, and he is surrounded by scenes of
restful beauty. No better treatment
could have been given to the area de-
voted to the park. In selecting lands
to supply the New York of the future
with parks, some of the areas chosen
could hardly, by any expenditure of
skill and money, be converted into
beautiful resorts. Still, these lands
have their capabilities, and if they
may not present much of beauty in
themselves, may be valuable as points
from which to view scenes of differ
ent kind. While the area is dreary
of itself, it commands a view, always
pleasing-that of a large body of wa
ter. If the land is properly laid out
in drives and walks, and provided
with abundant sheltered seats, it can
not fail to be a welcome resort, not
only for those who can drive to it in
their carriages, but to those artizans
and-laborers who make all the out
skirts of the city such hive of busy
industry. For such there should be
easy and cheap access, and at the
park, abundant provision for rest and
enjoymept.--4lssrtc1 AggtcElsurist.
